Whats the best weapons against bionic fortess

[Butterside down]

I armed my guys with rocks but those 6 million dollar men are armed with paper. Whats the best scissors here. Emp grenades I think would help for the shielded guys who resist all attacked. What else?

[Artek [General]]

EMP grenades, acid, tons of long range explosives, scouting drones...

If only there were sniper rifles that did 20+ points of paralysis.

The Pure have high armor, low WP, low HP, low movement, limbs, and status resistances. High power sniper weapons seem like a good idea, but they also have free force shields that provide incredible cover. Their HP and WP are so low, that even resisted status effects are still decent.

War cry is always excellent, but is even better against pure. Most pure are heavy or sniper classes, both of them need 3AP to attack. War cry cripples them to 2AP, so they can't attack.

Melee weapons are excellent. They ignore force shields and deal big hits against the pure's soft crunchy insides. The Neurazer is also effective. Pure have paralysis resist, reducing 8 stun to 4. But they only have ~150HP, so a few guys can gang up to zap them down. The paralysis sniper will wreck pure, if they can land a hit.

EMP, grenades and armor shred are good friends. WIthout a dedicated armor melter like acid, it takes a lot of effort. The sniper shredding skill suffers because they have a hard time landing any hit, but the berserker skill is excellent. Force shields are typically not worth the effort to shatter.

I don't remember what mental resistances the pure have. priests might be awesome because of low Pure WP and mind crush against low HP, or they might be useless due to immunity. Dunno.

There are Paralysis Sniper Rifles that do a lot more DPS. IF you change the Stats in the MODS/MOD SETTINGS tab at bottom of the Load Screen.
That also allows you to set any Faction Weapons, and Proto Civilization ones too. 👍👍1k💖🤠

[/b]Best way to beat The PURE! is to Shoot their Head, because of the low armor value.[/b]

I re-equipped my entire squad with AR51's and Raven 13 sniper rifles, EMP grenades.
I won the battle in 4 turns no casualties. I'm a little embarrassed I tried grinding through it with Synedrion rifles 3 times.

Not to be embarrassed. We all need to learn.

I still maintain the best weapon vs the pure is a modded out scarrab, just blows the legs clean off em'.

I like the way you think.
